Offline status ensures that no firmware updates are taking place before you remove
the blade.

Caution - Blades can be safely removed only if the blue LED is lit, or
if you are certain that a firmware update is not in progress. Pulling
the blade out of the chassis during a firmware update might damage the
blade, which might not be repairable in the field.

When the blade is in standby power mode, the OK LED on
the front panel blinks (0.1 second on, 2.9 seconds off).

Press the green ejector buttons at the top and bottom to unseat the
blade from the Sun Netra chassis connector.

Caution - Do not install a blade into the chassis until at least 20 seconds
has elapsed since the blade was disengaged from the chassis mid-plane connector.

Rotate both ejector arms away from the blade at the same time until
fully extended.

Caution - Possible component damage or personal injury. Do not attempt to remove the blade
using only the ejector levers.

Do one of the following to remove the blade from the chassis:

Caution - Blades can be safely removed only if the blue Ready to Remove LED
is lit, or if you are certain that a firmware update is not
in progress. Pulling the blade out of the chassis during a firmware update
might damage the blade, which might not be repairable in the field.

Complete removal: Pull the blade out of the Sun Netra chassis by the ejector
levers until you are able to grasp the blade with both hands (approximately
5-6 inches). Use your hands to slowly pull the blade out of the
chassis.

Partial removal: Pull the blade out 3 inches (8 cm) from the rack using
the ejector levers. Use your hands to slowly pull the blade out of
the chassis.

Caution - Always insert a blade filler panel into an empty slot within 60 seconds
to reduce the possibility of blade shutdown. Do not operate the chassis with
empty slots. If you operate the chassis with an empty blade slot, you
might notice a reduction in system performance. Possible system and component over-temperature warnings, shutdown,
and heat-related damage might be caused by empty chassis slots.
